When I got the chance to attend one of Joyce's presentations in 2007, I was happy to discover that, in addition to being an accomplished writer, she is a dynamic, entertaining lecturer.
I received an unexpected invitation from Dr. Valenza to join a panel of librarians at NECC 2008
and plan to be on her team of volunteers at the AASL (American Association of School Librarians) conference in Charlotte, NC in November 2009.
I have learned so much from Joyce Valenza about the challenges and rewards of being a school librarian in the 21st century. It gives me great pleasure to send birthday greetings her way today.

Diane,
I am incredibly flattered by your generous post. Thank you for your kindness. It's nice to learn that your words have a little impact in the universe.
Thank YOU also for sharing your beautiful words and images with the world.
We will rock AASL!

Joyce,
We Library Goddesses have to stick together! I can't wait to be reunited with some of our NECC team and meet in person the other school librarians who have become new friends through online interaction.
Hope your celebration is a joyous one!
